The lengths are fine but I can see the shorter under layer looking good too. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-layered-1/page/2#post-1006168 Thu, 15 Aug 2013 03:55:30 +0000 Karie 1006168@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The fit and drape look wonderful.

I hope you are able to post that one for us, too.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-layered-1/page/2#post-1005557 Wed, 14 Aug 2013 12:40:15 +0000 JennyAnne 1005557@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think it looks great but with the length and openness in the front, it reads more as a jacket to me.&nbsp; Maybe something to think about when you look for other pairings. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-layered-1#post-1005549 Wed, 14 Aug 2013 12:29:46 +0000 Betti 1005549@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like it, a lot! You have a talent for layering.</p> <p>I would love to see a shot of the tunic alone, it's very interesting. Actually, I'd like to make something similar. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-layered-1#post-1005497 Wed, 14 Aug 2013 08:42:03 +0000 Deborah 1005497@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You are all brilliant. Thanks for the feedback. Caro you nailed it. I couldn't see it at the time but it's that horizontal line that cuts down my body.</p> <p>Angie, thank you, your explanation makes perfect sense.</p> <p>Marley, I agree. I think next time, I might wear thick ponte leggings for a smoother sleeker line.</p> <p>Florence, we are so on the same page. I orginally put together this combo with the tunic for work (#1) but haven't worn it yet.</p> <p>Looking forward to tweaking. I so appreciate your collective wisdom. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-layered-1#post-1005400 Wed, 14 Aug 2013 04:35:04 +0000 jayne 1005400@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh Deb, you find the best pieces. I love the layers of black and grey.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-layered-1#post-1005399 Wed, 14 Aug 2013 04:33:43 +0000 FlorenceFearne 1005399@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love it. I do agree that a shorter top underneath the tunic would probably help lengthen the leg line though. Also, I know it's not your usual style, but I can't help thinking that style tunic top would look amazing layered over some kind of form-fitting pencil skirt or dress.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-layered-1#post-1005395 Wed, 14 Aug 2013 04:28:06 +0000 CocoLion 1005395@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>So chic! &nbsp;I love the different layers and textures. &nbsp;Now this is the way to wear black! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-layered-1#post-1005382 Wed, 14 Aug 2013 03:22:56 +0000 Jenava 1005382@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Nothing to add, just wanted to say how much I really love that tunic. &nbsp;I don't think it's too long since it is a wrap style. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-layered-1#post-1005362 Wed, 14 Aug 2013 02:18:40 +0000 Marley 1005362@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I can't tell what part is the tunic.&nbsp; Is it the black part? - or the gray part? - or both????&nbsp; <br />To me, it looks borderline too long.&nbsp; I think that if your jeans were skinnier (slimmer cut) without as much scrunch at the ankles, that the overall outfit would look better - and probably off-set the borderline "too long" look of the tunic.<br />I love the wedge booties!&nbsp; What brand are they? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-layered-1#post-1005359 Wed, 14 Aug 2013 01:59:16 +0000 soobee 1005359@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love it Deborah, chic and unique, totally your style.&nbsp; And what Caro said. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-layered-1#post-1005315 Wed, 14 Aug 2013 00:42:28 +0000 rae 1005315@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I guess it's just my monitor, cuz I didn't realize you had an underlayer on until Caro's comment. My eye does go to the high point of the V as-is. Really fun piece!&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-layered-1#post-1005310 Wed, 14 Aug 2013 00:39:20 +0000 Jaime 1005310@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love the layers and you look fantastic in grey. Agree with Caro's suggestion for next time - that might be even better! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-layered-1#post-1005306 Wed, 14 Aug 2013 00:35:49 +0000 Lantana 1005306@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm enamoured of the grey lace, Deborah.<br /> Caro's eye is spot on, isn't it?<br /> I reread Angie's comment several times thinking "how can a column of colour be shortening"? and I think it's the black column of colour she is referring to. The column created by the black tee and pants. Is that what you think? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-layered-1#post-1005230 Tue, 13 Aug 2013 22:27:48 +0000 Suz 1005230@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Beautiful to see the grey peeking out and it looks like an interesting piece! You wear it well. I hope your new booties are comfortable.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-layered-1#post-1005225 Tue, 13 Aug 2013 22:21:53 +0000 Lyn D. 1005225@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>FAB Deborah!<br />I think Caro and Angie are spot-on- the opening of the longer piece creates the potential to draw the eye to your whole leg length and therefore negate any shortening effect. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-layered-1#post-1005187 Tue, 13 Aug 2013 21:02:37 +0000 shedev 1005187@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love this tunic on you, Deb. Great texture. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-layered-1#post-1005183 Tue, 13 Aug 2013 20:56:14 +0000 texstyle 1005183@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I agree it looks great as is - but could be also very nice with the lighter under layer as suggested. It is a really beautiful tunic on you! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-layered-1#post-1005145 Tue, 13 Aug 2013 19:41:01 +0000 Anonymous 1005145@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think you look great Deb. I love the interesting layers and texture.

Nothing really. I agree with the rest. Really nice tunic, borderline length but with the optical illusion the length is totally corrected.<br /> Enjoy it.<br /> Greetje </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-layered-1#post-1004934 Tue, 13 Aug 2013 15:11:59 +0000 Hil 1004934@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think it's fabulous - so much texture and interest! I like the idea of a shorter top underneath but I don't dislike as is at all. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-layered-1#post-1004926 Tue, 13 Aug 2013 15:07:20 +0000 Day Vies 1004926@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yes it's definitely working. I love the way you play with structure texture and tone Deborah. I am taking notes </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-layered-1#post-1004879 Tue, 13 Aug 2013 14:25:03 +0000 MovingFashionForward 1004879@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think it looks SENSATIONAL, Deborah! I LOVE LOVE LOVE your style. To my eye it works perfectly exactly as pictured.</p> <p>Sarah </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-layered-1#post-1004878 Tue, 13 Aug 2013 14:24:24 +0000 Angie 1004878@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Caro's idea of a shorter under layer is spot on to my eye. </p> <p>I think the tunics are borderline okay in length, Debs. The column of colour does help "shorten" the piece by not creating a distinctive horizontal line which would emphasize the long length. </p> <p>I love your little wedge booties. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-layered-1#post-1004830 Tue, 13 Aug 2013 13:35:26 +0000 Anonymous 1004830@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look very tall in your photos. I think the length is ok, especially open with leg showing and your wedges. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-layered-1#post-1004801 Tue, 13 Aug 2013 13:02:09 +0000 Transcona Shannon 1004801@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think this looks beautiful on you - the opening of the tunic allows enough leg to show that I don't find it too long. I do like Caro's suggestion though - definitely worth a try. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-layered-1#post-1004784 Tue, 13 Aug 2013 12:19:55 +0000 amiable 1004784@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Looks terrific! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-layered-1#post-1004772 Tue, 13 Aug 2013 11:31:08 +0000 Debra 1004772@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Just gorgeous.......I love the layers and the grey adds a lovely softness </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-layered-1#post-1004767 Tue, 13 Aug 2013 11:10:46 +0000 Anonymous 1004767@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Good eye Caro -- that would be my suggestion too. </p>
